Vaccine Injury Compensation

Vaccines, like any medicines, can rarely cause serious problems and side
effects. In those cases, the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, “VICP”, is a
Federal program providing compensation to people who are found to
be injured by certain vaccines. In order to receive compensation,
you must prove that: (1) the injured person received a vaccine listed on the
Table; and (2) the first symptom of the vaccine injury listed on the Vaccine
Injury Table occurred within the time period listed on the Table or the vaccine
caused the injury or the vaccine caused an existing illness to get worse
(significantly aggravated). In addition, in order to receive
compensation, the Court must determine that the injury or death did not result
from any other possible causes.

Since the first compensation claims were made in 1989,
thousands of compensation payments have been made to victims totaling $2,354,402,849.25 in compensation paid to
petitioners. To see a listing of compensation claims
